The Golden Throne

Chapter 247: Message from Liu Man

Liu Feng’s hands trembled as he turned the page. He could visualize his father, sitting where he was, and writing the message out for him. He could hear the words in his ears as if his father was right next to him.

“Why didn’t you just ask me? You could have come to me. I should have shown you that I was capable of achieving what you needed to do.” Liu Feng said with an emotional tone. 

He continued looking through the book.

‘Your mother was the best thing that happened to me, and I am afraid that after I am gone, she will be able to take this easily. Feng’er. For her sake, and yours, please take care of her. She will definitely want to see you married and see you well off. But after that, please make sure that she does not feel left alone. The time that you were in the palace, you felt so distant to your mother. If you stay like that, your mother will no longer be able to stay where you are. She will long to go somewhere else. I do not care how much of a king you will become. But be the son that you are supposed to be. There are many people to who you can entrust all of the work to, but there are some things that only you can do. This is one of those things.’

Liu Feng took a deep breath. He could not say anything to this. Since his new life, he always felt that the family that he was given was foreign to him. Although he could call them his father and mother, there was that hint of hesitation in truly accepting them. This caused a huge barrier between the two sides, and he was not the loving son that any mother would want to have.

“Yes father. I will take care of her for sure.” Liu Feng sniffled as he nodded.

‘I have written down everything that you need to have as the next king. But there are a lot of things that I would only be able to tell you if I was there with you in person. So, let me tell you one more thing. There are a few people that I trusted my life with, and I know that they will continue to pledge their allegiance to you. I have listed all of them here. They are the people that I have relied on for so long. 

Your father was not the best person. I admit, I have made a few mistakes during my time as the king. But one of the biggest things that happened was during your grandfather’s time. Remember. Your grandfather is not the kind and loving old man that you see today. If you see that he is not agreeing with you on anything, the first thing that you have to do is make sure that George knows about it. Your grandfather will not be a reliable person, and he will be ready to bite you whenever you can. Do not trust him with anything.’

Liu Feng looked at this with shock. He did not expect there to be a feud between his father and grandfather.

“After today, I know better than to even talk to that man. He wanted to kill me? I will level the whole kingdom, and after a few years, no one will be able to do anything to me.” Liu Feng said confidently.

He flipped through the rest of the book, and nothing got his attention until he stopped on a page which had a photo of the dagger that he had found in the drawer. He looked at it with curiosity.

‘This dagger has been one of the biggest things that eluded me. I have been keeping this dagger with me for twenty years now, and I still haven’t been able to unsheath the dagger. I got it as a gift from a merchant who returned from another continent, and he presented this as a mythical artifact. I still do not know what this does, but remember, Liu Feng. Every artifact from the other continents is highly sought after. This could very well be the most precious thing in the treasury.’

Liu Feng knit his eyebrows.

“I need to visit one of these continents one day or the other.” he thought out loud.

“Remember, Liu Feng. You will not be able to use any of the powers that you have right now in the other continents. The spirits can only act within the domain of their power. Dicain is the domain of our power. Any further, and we are powerless.” Pyrus suddenly said.

Liu Feng nodded. He then thought to himself. 

“I need to find a way to elude the vision of these spirits. They are able to look and hear anything that I am doing. That is quite the privacy concern. I need to be able to do something anonymously, and having someone know about it will be quite the pain.” Liu Feng thought to himself. 

He sighed as he put the book down.

“I got what I came here for. Who would have thought that father would perfectly detail what happened? At the least, my conscious is satisfied, and my regret and guilt went down a little.” Liu Feng said as he got up.

He put the book back in the secret compartment, along with the dagger and the pendant. He still did not know what the pendant did, but he had a sneaking suspicion that it was similar to the pendant that his father detailed, which controlled him.

“I know for sure that I am not going to wear that thing.” he exclaimed.

After hiding the compartment, he put all of the documents in order. Soon, the desk looked exactly how it was supposed to look.

“Now that I am king, I guess that this is time to start doing things that I am actually supposed to do.” Liu Feng sighed.
